Turning by Naomi Walker is a sweeping, immersive piece that draws the viewer into a vortex of colour and motion. Large in scale, the painting envelops the space with its swirling composition, creating a sense of movement that feels both cosmic and fluid. Softly blended strokes of turquoise and gold spiral inward, leading the eye toward a glowing focal point—a warm, fiery burst of red at the centre, reminiscent of a distant light breaking through mist. The outer edges dissolve into muted, atmospheric hues, lending the piece an almost dreamlike quality.
The close-up reveals the delicate layering of colours, with golden streaks and soft, blurred reflections adding to the sense of depth. There’s an undeniable energy to Turning, as if capturing the fleeting moment of transformation—a shift in time, space, or perception. Its grand scale enhances its impact, making it a statement piece that commands attention. Whether viewed as an abstract storm, a whirlpool, or something entirely intangible, Turning is an evocative exploration of change, movement, and the unseen forces that shape our world.
This piece is currently on display at Chester TrinityBridge offices.
